getting ready to sleep, and noticed the cats over by the window. Didn't think anything of it until it all went quiet. I went over to the window, and they'd only gone and managed to make a hole in the screen and were on a nocturnal adventure.
They eventually came back in and I closed the window. The baby then took a running jump and comically smacked her head against the glass!
So now I have to replace the screen and can't open my window at night!

Get yourselves onto betting sites tonight and put money on Scotland for the 20/20.
Right now they're also-rans but the way Drummond and Haq played tonight I reckon they'll make the finals.
But don't come to me if I'm wrong.

Over the past few months, on and off, I've had a project that I've been working on. I wanted to create a set of stained glass privacy screens for my bedroom windows.
I've gotten one completed, and am about to do the final assembly on the second.

I have just had a horrid rememberance.
It was Reading, 2005. A few friends and I were wending our
As young men are wont to do, he went on and on and on about his sexual shenanigans of the previous few weeks. Until I heard the sentence that I have just remembered:
"O' course, we don't really do it doggy-style." said he.
"Why's that, buddy?" said another mate, clearly a glutton for punishment.
"Because her bum's too big and my dick's too small." came the all-too-honest reply.
In one measly minute I found out more about my friend than I ever, ever wanted to know.
When was the last time your friends shared too much?

Anyway, I googled "jack and coke cake" and it brought up a link to b3ta's question of the week on vomit.
Perhaps I should rethink my baking experimentations.

about how quickly a reservoir will empty if it were full and had a dam breach.
This particular reservoir is approximately 65000 metres cubed in volume and by my calculations it would empty in 12 minutes.
My advice to you: if you live downstream of a dam, move.

Given an email address, lets say "redacted", and a location, lets say, "redacted" University (whatever it is), and a full name, "AIPerks", and the theft of several hundred of my favourite pounds via the medium of fucking ebay, how exactly do I exact some revenge?
Just wondering. Particularly looking to those who have some legal, and entirely feasible ideas.

Last night I bought 4 cans of Bulmer's finest English apple flavoured strongbow cider drink. Eager to quaff the first can I didn't allow it a huge amount of time to chill - in fact, sitting in my garage it probably warmed up, as the garage door acts somewhat like a radiator in this recent heat.
Alas - enjoying my evening treat I was somewhat dismayed to find it tasted not unlike bar line cleaner (bleachy) it was subtle, and I had been drinking previously some lovely Tesco's own brand ginger beer, so I ignored it.
I've drunk many a pint with line cleaner, never did me no harm mister. So all 4 cans were drunk, all tasted slightly wrong.
So being the pedant I am, I decided to call up Bulmers, where, in my mind I had probably invented a problem, to be told, that my specific batch (that makes it sound like the knock me up some special) was indeed not tainted with bleach, but too much of one ingredient.
If that ingredient turns out to be rat, then I shan't be too pleased, but I look forward to the large crate of compensation that should be winging it's way to me in the near future. Gut rot tastic.

The Foo Fighters (or just Foo Fighters) 1st album.
I say, and I'm 100% correct, that is was self titled. This was the album that had the '50s Ray Gun on the cover.
However, someone here claims that the 1st Foo Fighters album is actually 'The Color & The Shape'. Their argument is based on the fact the ST album was a solo-project by Dave Grohl and TCATS was the 1st album by FF as a group thus qualifying as their debut album, despite being the 2nd FF release.
He is a smug cunt and wrong, although I suppose his argument has a slight trace of validity.

Took the car in for an MOT, it needs many things doing. The problem is, that the garage quoted about £670 to put it right, I'll get a few other quotes, but at the end of day, I reckon it's only worth about £300. But 'll never get another car as good for less than £700

Up until about 3 weeks ago, I'd never watched this.
My housemate got series 1-4, and since then I've been absolutely obsessed, watching them every night.
It's absolutely brilliant.
Anyone else watch it?

Procrastinating spectacularly. I've found a hole in my shorts, right in the crotch.
B3tans, make a choice for me. Do I:
A) Run home at lunch, inadvertently flashing the whole of Chester city centre along the way, and change my shorts for another pair and return to work?
B) Flash my coworker and hope to scare her?
C) Sit very still and stop procrastinating and get on with work?
Or D) You tell me what to do.
Edit: My workplace has no formal dress code, and I'm not a hippy, or 10, or a 10 year old hippy or any combination that you can think of.

I am NOT a tennis fan. Sorry, find it dull as dishwater, and only mildly more interesting than watching golf. But the fella has asked me if I want to go along for a day this year. My initial response was - thanks but I'd rather watch paint dry.
But then he told me tales of strawberries and cream and sitting in the sun.
My question - do you reckon the strawberries and cream and sun will outweigh the watching of the women in short skirts pretend to have mini orgasms on court?
/edit - this is very important research and cannot possibly wait until after I've done my revision.
